Nairobi, Jan. 22 -- World Cross Country champion Hellen Obiri will be seeking her fifth Kenya Defence Forces Cross Country title on Friday at Thika 12th Engineers Barrack.
Last year, Obiri sealed her fourth KDF women's 10km title on January 25 at the sunny Kahawa Garrison course ahead of her historic victory at the World Cross Country Championships on March 30 in Aarhus, Denmark.
Obiri, who will be representing her Laikipia Air Base team, went on to retain the 5,000m title at the World Championships on September 28 in Doha to cap off what was one of her most successful seasons.
Obiri kicked off her season with a fourth place finish at the 'Cross Internacional de Italica' in Seville, Spain on Sunday.
